A Warframe enthusiast recently shared a heartfelt post on Reddit, expressing his deep appreciation for the game and its developers, Digital Extremes, for playing a pivotal role in saving his marriage. This player, known as Foreign-Molasses7586, decided to reveal his personal journey to the Warframe community, which was met with enthusiastic support and well-wishes from Tenno worldwide.
In his post, titled “Thank you, Digital Extremes, Warframe saved my marriage,” he opened up about living with a “congenital malformation in the tendons of my ring and middle fingers.” Essentially, this condition makes finger movement difficult, which, as you can imagine, presents its own set of challenges. Among these challenges, as Foreign-Molasses7586 candidly shares, was his struggle with “pleasuring my wife.”
That’s where Warframe came into the picture and turned things around for the couple. “Then came Warframe. And with it, two frames that changed everything: Gauss and Atlas. I picked them up because they were fun and aggressive,” he explained. The gameplay required intense use of his hands. Initially, this was painful due to the constant action, but he persisted, driven by his love of the game and determination to improve.
With time and dedication, he experienced significant improvements—gradual strengthening and muscle growth in his fingers. Encouraged by this progress, he upgraded to a keyboard with heavier keys, which, though painful at first, further enhanced his finger strength.
Eventually, his efforts led to a rewarding result. Foreign-Molasses7586 shared the joyous news that he felt confident enough to revisit a personal aspect of their relationship, and it was successful. “And last night, during an intimate moment with my wife, I was confident enough to bring it up again and IT WORKED (the movement is still rough around the edges but hey, it’s something!). We both just sat there, kind of stunned. I was the happiest man alive.”
While he doesn’t spell out every detail, his happiness is clear to see—it’s safe to assume this wasn’t about an intricate braid session. The responses to his story have been a mix of humor and encouragement. One person cheekily remarked, “THANK YOU DE I CAN FINGER BLAST AGAIN!!!!!” Another chimed in with, “Digital Extremes really brought your digits to the… extreme.” Some even speculated on whether Digital Extremes would highlight his story in an upcoming stream, and honestly, it seems right up their alley.
Humor aside, this narrative is truly uplifting. Games have long been explored for their ability to assist in physical therapy, and the Able Gamers community even underscores this potential. While perhaps not often bridging into the realm of bedroom antics, this tale of triumph adds another layer to the therapeutic potential of gaming.
So, let’s raise a toast to Foreign-Molasses7586 and his wife, cheering for their continued happiness in marriage and, forgive the impolite pun, spirited Gauss gameplay for many years to come.
